Bob Rafelson is one of the leading fi gures in the American cinema having distinguished himself over the past 3 decades as a director, writer and producer of a group of fi lms remarkable for their path breaking artistic excellence. Aft er studies at Dartmouth and an apprenticeship with David Susskind, Desilu, and Columbia Screen Gems, Rafelson created and produced the TV cult hit THE MONKEES. (Emmy Winner – best comedy). He went on to make his feature fi lm directorial debut with HEAD, co-written by himself and Jack Nicholson, starring Th e Monkees. Rafelson then began BBS Productions with his partners Bert Schneider and Steve Blauner. Th at company would prove to be the spawning ground for an artistic renaissance in American fi lmmaking, producing such outstanding fi lms as EASY RIDER, FIVE EASY PIECES, THE LAST PICTURE SHOW, and the Academy Award winning documentary, HEARTS AND MINDS. FIVE EASY PIECES, directed by Rafelson and for which he won the award for Best Director from the New York Film Critics, is frequently cited by critics and fi lm afi cionados as one of the fi nest American fi lms of the Seventies. Rafelson’s next fi lm, THE KING OF MARVIN GARDENS, starring Jack Nicholson, Bruce Dern, and Ellen Burstyn, is also lauded as one of the remarkably innovative fi lms of the ‘70’s. In STAY HUNGRY, Rafelson again demonstrated his extraordinary ability to identify and nurture promising young talent, providing an early break through for Jeff Bridges, and fi rst movie roles for Sally Field and Arnold Schwarzenegger. THE POSTMAN ALWAYS RINGS TWICE from a screenplay by David Mamet, starred Jack Nicholson and the still relatively unknown Jessica Lange, along with Anjelica Huston, in a role that would precipitate her rise to prominence. BLACK WIDOW, starring Debra Winger and Th eresa Russell, saw Rafelson stretching the boundaries of the psychological thriller. Shot on location in Africa, his next fi lm was MOUNTAINS OF THE MOON, an ambitious fi lm chronicling the 19th century search for the source of the Nile River by British adventurers and scholars Sir Richard Burton and John Hanning Speke. Th is was followed by MAN TROUBLE starring Jack Nicholson and Ellen Barkin. BLOOD AND WINE marked Rafelson’s eighth fi lm with Jack Nicholson, fi ve of which he directed. It is a study that began with what Roger Ebert has called “a masterpiece of heartbreaking intensity.” In addition, Rafelson directed POODLE SPRINGS for HBO, an adaptation of a Raymond Chandler story, written by Tom Stoppard. Finally he’s done a few turns in front of the camera, acting in Henry Jaglom’s ALWAYS and Mike Figgis’ LEAVING LAS VEGAS. As a result of his enormous contribution to American Film, Rafelson is oft en invited to international festivals. He frequently teaches a masterclass (“Confessions of a Film Director”) with clips from his more familiar fi lms. 151
